Intersection
At the intersection of a provincial road and an international highway, the Roma community of a small Romanian town begins and ends their day. It is the point of the geographical crossing that divides them from the rest of the world and keeps them within the traditional lifestyle, where families, elderly, men and women, children and teenagers have lived for generations.
